This is the year

Well, the only one I can brag about right now is dandelion wine, but it's always been kick ass... liquid sunshine...

I had a hardcore whiskey drinker (40lber a night type) drink a bottle of it one night with a friend and swear it was harder then whiskey... lol

Of course it wasn't really, but she sure loved it...

We hope to get at least a batch (5 gallons) each of dandelion, blueberry and raspberry this year, maybe even some mead if I can make a deal with a fellow up the road for some honey.

 

Best wishes. I recluse myself because I don't drink.

 

great now instead of it being 105 in the summer its gonna be 110+? fuck man i might have to move north for the summer

 

There were places yesterday that normally have a high of around 5C (41F), that were at 25C (77F).... and this is only may... having that much heat this early means those places that usually hit 105 are going to hit "OH MY GOD HE JUST BURST INTO FLAME"...lol

 

man.. the record heat for my city was 116(F) in 2001..atleast i have a reason to bust out the freezie pops and some ice cold beer =)

 

I think 116 would kill me...

 

its brutal man.. when i was a kid a melted a spoon into the asphalt and its been there since. hahah

 

tell me what melts into the asphalt this year... lol

When it leaves the double digits (99+) it's getting too hot for me.

At least in general terms...

for a day at the beach its great when it's hot...

 

the beach is where its at during summertime where i live, its the only escape from becoming a crispy critter

 

I'd much rather be in a place where it doesn't get so hot and you can accomplish things without dying of heat stroke.

 

I can't deal with English summers, it's a horrible heat and you can't escape it.

 

i hear ya, but 1 month of 100+ is well worth the 11 months of perfect 75-90 F weather.

 

lol, I prefer the 6 months of nice weather and the 6 month rest period... I mean winter...

 

Sure is warm these days...
